Image courtesy of Alan Sheppard Homes C-Bus is a microprocessor controlled wiring system used to control lighting and other electrical services within the home. It acts like a hub, linking your home s electrical services such as lighting and security, and allowing communication between them. We call this distributed intelligence. Innovative C-Bus products like the SceneMaster and Touch Screen wall units, as well as smart switches like Neo, act as the command systems for C-Bus. Using these products can trigger certain responses in one or more devices connected to the C-Bus network. For example, pushing one button on SceneMaster can turn all the lights on downstairs and open the curtains. A home with HomeMinder looks after itself. 4 5
